DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES

Trelar Logistics provides a platform via the Mobile App and our Website (defined above as the “Services”) so that Shippers may submit Shipments through the Service.

Once Trelar Logistics accepts a Shipment for posting, the Shipment’s details, as provided by the Shipper, will be posted to the Service. The Shipper may cancel a Shipment at any time prior to a Carrier accepting it. You may view a list of Shipments available to you at any time and accept a Shipment through the Service. Once you accept a Shipment, you will be assigned to perform transportation services related to the Shipment.

Trelar Logistics will notify the Shipper that the Shipment has been accepted. It also will notify you that the Shipment has been assigned to you; PROVIDED, however, that Trelar Logistics does not guarantee that your attempt to accept any Shipment will be successful. Trelar Logistics assigns Shipments to the first Carrier which accepts the posting. If the original Carrier assignment fails for whatever reason, the Shipment will be re-posted to the Service.

Within a reasonable time after accepting tender of building materials for transport, you shall upload to the Service your bill of lading for the shipment. You shall not name Trelar Logistics as either a shipper or consignee on any bill of lading. Trelar Logistics is not responsible for any Shipment terms entered into between you and a Shipper.

Unless otherwise agreed, freight charges stated in the App and agreed to by your acceptance of Shipments hereunder include the transportation of the building materials from origin to destination; the cost of any fuel, tolls, ferry charges or other expenses related to the operation or maintenance of your equipment; and any other specialized services or equipment contemplated in the load tender. If any additional services not contemplated at the time a Shipment is posted are provided by Carrier. Carrier will use its best efforts to provide Trelar Logistics advance notice of any and all unspecified ancillary services or costs incurred so that Trelar Logistics may attempt to obtain Shipper approval of such charges. Absent express prior agreement, Trelar Logistics does not guarantee that invoices for accessorial and/or ancillary services will be paid.

Once a Shipment is completed, you shall post to the Service a proof of delivery signed by the authorized recipient within 24 hours of delivery.

Trelar Logistics may, as a convenience and value-added service, provide you through the Service with access to GPS services, Maps or similar service to suggest routing. However, any such routing information is for your convenience only. It is not instructional or mandatory.

Non-Solicitation

During the term of this Agreement, and for a period of one (1) year from its termination, you shall neither initiate nor accept any direct or indirect business relationship with any Shipper where Shipments to or from such Shipper were first transported pursuant to the Service, or in connection with use of the Service. Your obligation in this regard extends to instances where a Shipper contacts you and seeks to establish a business relationship that does not include Trelar Logistics. This provision shall continue in force beyond termination of this Agreement for one (1) year subsequent to termination.

Carrier Liability for Building materials Loss or Damage

Carrier’s liability for lost, destroyed, damaged or delayed Shipments is governed by 49 USC §14706 (referred to as “the Carmack Amendment”) regardless of whether such standard would apply in the absence of this Agreement. Such liability shall include, but not be limited to, amounts required to inspect, test, segregate and process claims. In addition to any such liability, if Shipper assesses charges against Trelar Logistics with respect to late deliveries by Carrier, Carrier shall be responsible for such amounts regardless of whether there is loss, damage or destruction to the Shipment in question.

Shipper shall have sole discretion as to whether to allow salvage of any damaged Shipment. If no salvage is allowed, Carrier shall not be entitled to a credit for salvage value. Any expenses incurred in preparation of goods for salvage shall be borne by Carrier.

Any attempt to limit your liability for lost, destroyed, damaged or delayed Shipments, including, but not limited to, via provisions contained in any bill of lading, delivery receipt or tariff shall be deemed null and void.

You understand and agree that Trelar Logistics, from time to time, enters into master transportation contracts or like documents with certain shippers. Such contracts often provide that their terms preempt and govern over any term within a bill of lading or other shipping document that conflicts or is otherwise inconsistent with the contracts. To the extent any transport you undertake hereunder is governed by a contract between Trelar Logistics and a shipper containing such a clause, you agree that any bill of lading or other document you issue shall be subordinate to and preempted by such contract’s terms. Trelar Logistics will advise you on request as to whether any such master transportation contract or like document containing a preemptive clause exists with respect to specific shipments you undertake. You further understand and agree that such contracts or like documents may contain terms restricting the extent to which you may be entitled to collected charges for accessorial and ancillary services, in which event Trelar Logistics will not pay related charges notwithstanding any advance notice.

Indemnification of Shipper

You agree to defend, indemnify and hold Shippers (and their officers, employees, and agents) harmless, including costs and attorneys’ fees, from any and all damages, claims or losses arising out of your performance of this Agreement, to the extent such damages, claims or losses are caused by you or your employees’ or agents’ negligence or intentional conduct.

CHOICE OF LAW

Except to the extent governed by applicable federal law, this Agreement shall be deemed executed in the State of Texas and shall be interpreted, in the event of a dispute arising hereunder, under the laws of Texas without regard to its conflicts of law’s provisions. The parties specifically disclaim application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. The parties waive any and all rights and remedies provided by Part B to Title IV of Title 49 to the U.S. Code to the extent such rights and remedies conflict with the provisions of this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, the parties expressly waive access to records pursuant to 49 C.F.R. Part 371.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION

In the event of a dispute arising out of this Agreement related to claims by or against Trelar Logistics, a party’s recourse shall be exclusively settled through binding and confidential arbitration. Arbitration shall be subject to the Federal Arbitration Act. The arbitration shall be conducted before one arbitrator from the Transportation ADR Council, Inc. (“TAC”). Arbitration proceedings shall be conducted under the rules of the TAC.

Upon agreement of the parties, arbitration proceedings may be conducted outside of the administrative control of the TAC. The decision of the arbitrator shall be binding and final and the award of the arbitrator may be entered as judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. The prevailing party shall be entitled to recovery of costs, expenses and reasonable attorney fees as well as those incurred in any action for injunctive relief, or in the event further legal action is taken to enforce the award of the arbitrator.

Arbitration proceedings shall be conducted in King County, Washington, or at such place as mutually agreed upon in writing by the parties. At any time, either party may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction in King County, Washington for injunctive or other equitable relief. In the event that either party is granted equitable relief, the party against whom judgment is entered shall be liable for all costs and expenses incurred by the prevailing party including, but not limited to, reasonable attorney fees. This paragraph shall not apply to enforcement of an award of arbitration.

The parties may also proceed in Small Claims Court in King County, Washington to resolve any dispute where reasonably expected damages are less than $5,000. Unless preempted or controlled by federal law and regulations, this agreement shall be interpreted and enforced according to the laws of the State of Washington.

This paragraph does not apply to claims you may have against a Shipper.
